Over 700 pickleball noise complaints in HDB estates since 2024

Just install sound proof windows, problem solved

Why HDB never build basement tennis court and gym? Then won't have such issues.

700 only? I expected 7000...

Anyway, you can train your patience and mind endurance by listening on YouTube. I recommend max volume for overwhelming comfort:

Ya!! And remember to put on headphones too so as not to disturb others!!!

In my area, the ones that makes the most noise are not the pickleball players, but the jokers who play soccer on the basketball court. They shout a lot and often play in large groups. They also expect people to pick up the ball for them when it goes off court and into the drain.

The 2nd group that makes the most noise are the clowns that conduct zumba lessons on the basketball court during evening. They usually chase off the basketball players and act like they own the court. Basketball court should strictly be for basketball players only for both cases.

This one really is self pwn initiative. Which smart alec went to approve to build a pickleball court next to HDB flats.

Doing this is akin to telling all the neighbouring HDB units that I dont value you. You satisfy a small group of pickleball players but lose everyone else living around the court. *standing ovation *

Since build already, just convert to a sheltered mph or sth.

Problem that those pickleball play at badminton court or multipurpose court which meant for badminton, volleyball & takraw. They themself proclaim that they can play the noisy game there. No brainer !

They wont change it. As they need a tournament ball (which is noisy) to practice.

Last time lky era, people is more considerate, not playing in the middle of night and shouting loudly

Siao. Last time i play bball at basketball court until lights out, go turn back on switch and continue. Made damn lot of noise

 

[Ubi-Warrior]

[Toiletpaper80]

The noise will mask each other out

 

[tuxguy]
